Using these Tatonka side release buckles is a breeze. Just insert the strap through the buckle and adjust it to your desired length, then snap it shut. When you need to release, simply press the side tabs. As for maintenance, keep them clean by wiping with a damp cloth. Avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals as this may damage the Nylon Acetal 6.6 material. If you plan to use them in wet conditions, dry them thoroughly after use to prevent rust or corrosion. When storing, keep them in a dry and cool place. Also, make sure to check the buckle's snap mechanism regularly to ensure it's working properly.
